I flat refuse to pull any rover dash older than 2000. exception is hard plastic dashed classics. when I replaced the dash structure in my p38 prior to the accident, I removed all the support bolts and the thing literally caved in on itself. 96' fwiw.

stay away from the parts stores ones, they kinda suck and are way over priced. I've had pretty good luck with GMB water pumps.

  MV Agusta F4. Guy takes it to dealer because its ticking, they open the engine, found nothing wrong, sent it back to him. 500mi later it did that. (I don't think they used enough RTV on the case halves )

Kill-9 posted:Range Rover Classics have that same kind of handle. Yank, *SNAP*! If I find a Classic in a junk yard the handles are one of the first things I pull off to keep as spares. Along with window switches, window motors, and seat controls. Seat switches are the same ones in 80s benzes, break off the power head rest switch. motors don't usually fail, but the rollers do. go to home depot and get the 7/8s drawer repair roller kit and swap em. Disco handles swap on if you liked the blacked out look.

Not offhand. I'll dig around and see what I can find though. RRC heater cores are a right of passage to ownership. with that said, gently caress doing them.

correct pads, just not seated in the mount on the caliper, they were kinda sitting at a 15* angle, which I don't even know how the gently caress, but at any rate, I swapped the two pads around until I get around to ordering new pads/rotors for the rear cause gently caress these crusty looking turds.

I own a rover. I deny nothing. I also don't hem and haw at the cost of regular maintenance for my 20 year old truck thats worth 1200 dollars on paper. Like most people here. I was targeting the typical owner that whines at the cost of a 400 dollar brake (break) job. Seeing as how I've dealt with many marques over the years, and these 3 come back with the most whiny, cheap assed owners period.

Terrible Robot posted:The back lot of the Rover/Jag shop I worked at was packed full of Disco IIs and P38s that were abandoned at the shop by their owners when they found out a head gasket job cost $2,500. Some of them did it after they said yes to the work and then tried to weasel their way out of paying. there was always a couple half dead trucks like that at my shop sitting out back waiting to get picked up by the owner. Overall it wasn't all terrible. I had a few regulars that put money into their vehicles and enjoyed using em. Plus once a month I'd schedule a big offroad trip with them and help make revenue go wheeling for the day. E:  I built that truck for the owner, then it was buried. It spent a few months in the bushes like that. got it running again and he lunched the engine a month later because he ran it out of oil. cursedshitbox fucked around with this message at 18:54 on Feb 26, 2014 |

Prior rangie I owned caught fire once due to the relay for the abs pump sticking making the pump run constantly over pressurizing it, blowing the line, then pumping brakefluid allover a hot exhaust. I carry two or more fire extinguishers at all times. gently caress that poo poo.

Fuckers in a color and I cant read it. goddammit. You go directly to the dealer/factory for parts. FLAPS won't have poo poo for em. Last I heard the biturbo 6.75 had a 18month wait on lifters.
